We were there as well, and as great as Hendrix was, and as impossible as it might seem to follow him; Lee Michaels absolutely blew the place apart. Loudest, most powerful set of music I have seen to this day. Nobody on earth could have followed Jimi that night, yet a two piece group(organ and drums)that nobody had ever heard of in these parts sealed the deal.

Atlanta there was a free local concert ,donations to get your brothers out of jail. Hendriks showed up unexpectedly and played to about 200 people. I got to meet him and with 15 or so people sat in a circle and smoked a few with him. It showed me the class act he really was!

This screening was in September of 2012. We are unsure of what occurred afterwards with the release of the DVD.
